Are you Happy With Your F30?!

[Fredo]

I drove an old landcruiser for a while...the only thing i like about it is i found it easy to cut q during traffic jam...i just bulldoze like ive got nothing to lose n most people will give way hahahha :burnout:

 

[Nightswan]

I'm happy with my F30. Yes there are problems but I won't lose sleep on it. May sell the car 5 years down the line so no need to worry about parts for replacement. Just enjoy the ride. :top:

M-Sport will take care of that cornering n braking problem !

and not to be forgotten....m performance suspension together with upgraded sway bar....

quattro is a different beast. unlikely suspension tuning can fix it. 4 wheel drive around corners is ridiculous. pure traction

Don't forget the driver's skill counts too.

if m performance isnt enough then xdrive should step in...

 

[jennypenny]

back to main topic. Am I happy?

my car has some funny rattles when i'm driving over bumpy roads. not too happy about this.

soundproofing is poor when compared to Merc or Audi.

small niggles but surely annoying.

 

[silvy]

same. i am also having the funny rattles when driving over bumpy roads .

 

[patgwh]

Is it physically possible to have cars that don't have rattles when bumping? If we want to have some fun, it must make some noise. Throw you around a bit, make you sweat maybe. Make you hate it a bit then love it some more. Engaging and alive. At the end of the day, you would need to decide what you expect from your car - a silent mover or joy on wheels? :burnout:

I went to BMW showroom today. According to them the rusty seat problem already solved for the latest stock. I wanted to test drive 320i, but they only have 328i test for me to test drive only. I love the power but the price is out of my budget. Any bro here mind to share with me more about your 320i? According to them 320i white sport need to wait till May 2013.

I took my F30 320i in Oct last year and despite the rusted seat frames and minor teething problems,I've no regrets in getting the car as the handling and performance itself nullifies all..and most of all,ive met and made friends with many great UDMs owners and in these few short months,I've participated in few weekend drives which made me realized what's the meaning of spirited driving,if you say 240K is your budget and in sedan category,then the other options would be Audi A4 and C180(test drove the A4 1.8T thrice!)but at the end,in my humble opinion,F30 320i wins hands down,there's plenty other dealers around to test drive the 320i and if you're still unsure,come join us for the weekend drives and see and feel for yourself what it's all about..there'll be the diesel boys too in case you'll need advice in going for the D car..

I have also test drove the 320 recently and it was very nice as mention by wolfdire. The price is worthwhile for 50k cheaper compared to 328 considering most of the things are the same...even the engine

 

[jennypenny]

320i is a good car. but the 328i is a much better car.

the power itself and the sport autobox is a totally different animal.

 

[tweftfom]

....just be xtra careful with pothole and water puddle......

Well,all I can say if budget permits go for the 328i,Jenny is right if a single point that justifies the 50K difference is the POWER n TORQUE but 320i with little toys plugged in can make it more interesting sort to speak..and I personally feel any sedan car driven through deep waters runs the risk of damaging the car and any RFTs unfortunate enough to plough into a pothole risks damaging the tires...just need to be careful,alert n pray when one is on the road during a heavy downpour..

 

[Fredo]

Yeah...if u can afford more then go for 328...want more fun then go for 335 :rock:

I was just at Ingress yesterday and was told there are 2012 pre-reg event cars with miniscule mileage like 10 kms going for RM218k, was told these are 320d in Modern Line. I think this is freakin' awesome value
